Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0E80. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thex
are the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0E80 to binary:
00001110 10000000
. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100000 10111010 10000000

Description
U+0E80 is a unique character in the Unicode Standard, which plays an essential role in digital text representation. This character code is predominantly utilized for representing specific characters in minority languages and scripts that are not widely supported by modern computer systems. Its primary function lies within the realm of typography, where it helps ensure accurate representation of text from various linguistic backgrounds. In some cases, U+0E80 serves as a replacement character when standard Unicode representations fail to cover certain scripts or symbols. This can be particularly important for preserving historical documents, ancient texts, or traditional literature that may contain characters not covered by the mainstream Unicode set. The use of U+0E80 in such instances helps maintain cultural integrity and ensures that these unique scripts are not lost to time. The character U+0E80 is often employed within niche applications where specific language support is necessary, such as academic research, linguistic studies, or specialized software development. As the world becomes more connected, it is increasingly crucial for digital text to be inclusive of all languages and scripts, and U+0E80 plays a vital role in facilitating this inclusivity.
